Pete Wentz has admitted drinking his wife Ashlee Simpson's breast milk.



The Fall Out Boy rocker said he'd tried the milk since Ashlee gave birth to their son Bronx Mowgli in November, but decided it tasted "weird", reports Usmagazine.com.

Pete, speaking on Sirius' The Morning Mash Up! show in the US, also revealed he's packed on a few pregnancy pounds of his own.

This has got us in full-on gibbering OMG THAT IS SOOOO KEWL mode. It's a fake trailer for a hypothetical Thundercats movie starring Brad Pitt, Hugh Jackman and Vin Diesel, made by cutting together footage from masterpieces such as The Chronicles Of Riddick, Troy, X-Men 2, Spy Kids and Farscape. It manages to not only be better than many of the source films, but also to get us more excited for a Thundercats movie than any real-life Thundercats movie possibly could.

Depressingly, it turns out there is actually a Thundercats movie in the works , and it will be entirely CGI and directed by a video game designer and it will almost certainly suck.

Stephen Fry
The National Treasure™ became an internet treasure as well this year, from the immense gadget reviews on his blog to his regular podcasts, to actually having proper conversations with fans on Twitter. A model for how to do online engagement. And that's without even mentioning his magical communicating testicles.

Spotify
While a gazillion online music services launched in 2008, Spotify is the one we just fell in love with. Instant, seamless streaming music from a huge library, that lets you share tracks with friends, collaborate on playlists, and more. And best of all, it’s free (there’s also a subscription option). It’s invite-only right now - but they’ve kindly given us a bunch of invites for Metro readers. It's on a first come, first served basis (and limited to UK users only) so you'll need to be quick. The invites have now gone - sorry. If you still really, really want one, leave a comment below with a valid email address, and we'll see what we can do. No promises, mind...



Parry Gripp
From the Hamster on a Piano to Spaghetti Cat, the absurbist, insanely catchy songs of Nerf Herder frontman Gripp captured the bizarre glories of minor internet memes.


The Big Picture
Easily the blog of the year, Alan Taylor's photoblog for the Boston Globe is stunningly simple - posting newsworthy photographs at a huge size. But it’s Taylor’s eye for the beautiful or shocking image that makes it such a must-read. Still doubtful? Check out his pictures of the year, or especially the incredible posts on the Sun and the Antartic.


Mars Phoenix
In the year that WALL-E enchanted cinema audiences, the real-life adventures of a robot alone on a desolate planet captured the hearts of internet users. The Mars Phoenix lander’s first-person online updates - on Twitter and for Gizmodo - talked about its work, answered questions, and announced major scientific discoveries announced major scientific discoveries on Twitter before they broke anywhere else. Actually the work of NASA news officer Veronica McGregor, the jokey, engaging tone made people quickly fall in love with the little enthusiastic robot. And as it slowly froze to death in the long Martian winter, millions of miles from home, its final messages - ‘Take care of that beautiful blue marble out there in space, our home planet. I’ll be keeping an eye from here’ - left more than a few people in tears.

Last week, New York Governor David Paterson proposed a state budget for 2009 that both reduces spending on essential programs and taxes everything save Tab and record albums. We'll let him explain his predicament to you:

This is another shot of thesweet-as-pie baby hippo.

Mom's wondering,"Does this angle make my butt look big?"

... and no matter how cute it already was, it only gets cuter I believe.

Time magazine has selected their person of the year. Guess what, it's President-elect Barack Obama. Yeah, ironically, Ebony magazine announced their person of the year, and it's Ed Begley Jr. Gay leaders are furious at Barack Obama because he picked an anti-gay minister to deliver a prayer during the inauguration ceremony. Yeah. Gay leaders are also furious at Obama because the tie he's planning to wear is all wrong.

President Bush is hosting a lunch next month with President-elect Obama and all the former presidents. Isn't that cool? Yeah. Bush said, 'I invited all 43 guys, but only four responded.' He doesn't know what happened.

We absolutely love, love, love this Flickr group dedicated to re-enacting scenes from Gary Larson’s wonderful Far Sides cartoons.

Three people in Japan have died after trying to use a robotic foot massage machine on their necks and shoulders.

In the most recent case, a woman removed the cloth cover of the machine and ended up strangling herself when her shirt collar was caught in its massage rollers. The other two deaths also seem to have occurred in a similar manner. No recall of the product has been issued, but the manufacturer thought it would be a good idea to issue a public warning.

UPDATE: Oh God, call the wienerologist!

Increasingly, the deceased are bringing their cell phones and other PDAs with them to the great beyond.

"It seems that everyone under 40 who dies takes their cell phone with them," said Noelle Potvin, a counselor for a Hollywood, California funeral home. While there are no official statistics kept on this phenomenon, funeral directors all over the world are reporting it as a trend.

Sometimes, friends and family leave the departed messages during the funeral. One New York woman went so far as to continue paying her late husband's cell phone bill so she could call him -- and graciously engraved the phone number on his headstone, so others could also make a booty call to the afterlife.

Unfortunately for the grieving widow (and for any buried-alive scenarios) most cell phone services don't offer reception six feet under.

An Indonesian man dubbed the "tree man" because of the gnarled warts all over his body has said his condition had worsened again, although he still hopes to recover and find a job.

An Egyptian man said on Wednesday he was offering his 20-year-old daughter in marriage to Iraqi journalist Muntazer al-Zaidi, who threw his shoes at U.S. President George W. Bush in Baghdad on Sunday.



The daughter, Amal Saad Gumaa, said she agreed with the idea. 'This is something that would honour me. I would like to live in Iraq, especially if I were attached to this hero,' she told Reuters by telephone.

Her father, Saad Gumaa, said he had called Dergham, Zaidi's brother, to tell him of the offer. 'I find nothing more valuable than my daughter to offer to him, and I am prepared to provide her with everything needed for marriage,' he added.

So I guess the Top dating tip is: if you throw shoes at the President of the United States, people will start offering you their daughters.

If you're still not sure what to get the geek in your life, might we suggest a chorus line of dancing, singing R2D2 robots, as demonstrated in this rather excellent video?

15 years If im not mistaken. Anyway have a blast. I know you read this blog.

It's not a proper year until everyone's made a list. As such, here's the first five entires in our round-up of the ten best people, sites, services, memes, videos and general stuff on the internet in 2008:

Twitter
For a while, it looked like 2008 might be the year Twitter died prematurely, collapsing under its own success. But by the end, it had confirmed its status as the online hangout of choice - a perfect hybrid of social networking, instant messenger, texting and blogging.

RoboCop
Whether pictured happily astride a unicorn, or being rapped about by a hip-hop crew from Hereford, the cyborg lawman previously known as Alex J. Murphy was all over the place this year.



Warren Ellis
Top British comics writer and novelist, Warren Ellis is one of the most inimitable voices online - from the excellent web comic FreakAngels, to the mindbleach-requiring pictures* on his blog, or his habit of prowling around Twitter demanding Red Bull and 'human bacon'.

Literal video
The re-dubbed 'literal video' version of A-ha's 'Take On Me' that simply described what happened in the classic video ('Pipe wrench fight!') was a slice of pure comedy perfection. Later iterations took on Tears For Fears and (naturally) Rick Astley, but the first remains the best.

Barack Obama
The newly elected President of the Internet didn't just have the most innovative online campaign ever - he also launched a thousand web memes. Including, naturally, the Barackroll.

Icy Car Crashes In Portland - Watch today’s top amazing videos here

I've been playing this game like a billion times trying to get the highscore but I never seem to make it.

It was only a matter of time – the infamous George Bushshoe-throwing incident has inspired an internet game where the playerthrows a brown shoe at a moving target of the President. Sock and Awe – a pun on the US military strategy of "shock and awe" – gives players 30 seconds to try to hit Bush as many times as possible.

The Iraqi prime minister, Nouri al-Maliki, can be seen peeping over a lectern next to Bush in the mock-up of the now-infamous joint news briefing on Sunday when an Iraqi journalist threw his shoes at the US president. The game gives a running total of shoes to have hit Bush in the face – there were 6,722,892 successful hits at the time of writing. The Guardian's best effort was 12 in one go.

Bought a new phone! :D

Nokia E90 Communicator

• The Nokia E90 does not support fax as fax services are not included in the 3G Specifications. It does however support fax through Content Beamer application.
• Supports Microsoft Exchange email via the Nokia "Mail for Exchange" software application. This program does not support folders or native HTML mail.
• Since Nokia E90's web browser shares similar code-base as iPhone's Safari browser, most iPhone Web Applications are accessible through Nokia E90's browser as well.

My favourite YouTube Channel 'ForrestFire101' has a new featured video in YouTube.



Check out their other creative stop motion episodes ;D

This video actually got me to blog today. Can you believe it.




But I've got to give President Bush credit for this, because he's taking it all pretty well. He says that he's actually happy about the shoe-throwing episode, because he says it proves finally that Iraq does, in fact, possess foot wear of mass destruction. Have you watched this tape? Some people are criticizing the Secret Service, because the shoe thrower caught them off guard. The man was able to throw a second shoe. A spokesman for the Secret Service said, 'Sorry, but we were laughing our asses off.


The shoe thrower is indentified as an Iraqi correspondant, Muntadhar Al Zaidi

Here's a video of it again



I guess he's been playing that Wii Dodgeball game

I haven't been able to update lately. My whole family members are here and my cousins and uncle keep on using the internet cable.

Very disappointing

Jeff Hardy wins the WWE Title *boring*

Well, folks, looks like we finally found something President Bush is good at. Dodgeball! You got to admit, whatever you think of the guy, he's got good reflexes. Even Bill Clinton was impressed. You know, Clinton's an expert at ducking shoes, ashtrays, lamps. Everything. Now, here's my question, and no offense here, but where was the Secret Service? I mean, shouldn't they at least have jumped in front of the second shoe? I mean, you know what I'm saying? Come on. Seriously. Aren't these guys supposed to take a bullet for the president?

Dolphin Stampede (..right..)

Ever wondered what a dolphin stampede looks like? This video will show you. Seriously, there’s really an awful lot of dolphins in this video, all going bonkers. Wait until the end, when it takes a step up from 'that's a lot of dolphins' to 'OMG THAT'S MORE DOLPHINS THAN I EVER IMAGINED POSSIBLE'.






A Geek Is For Life, Not Just For Christmas

This Christmas, take some time to think of those less fortunate than yourselves, slaving away moderating forums, wrapping up presents for their wireless router, and sighing forlornly because everyone else in their World of Warcraft guild is enjoying Christmas dinner and there's no-one to form a raiding party with.




Alternatively, take a bold stand and start protesting at the unfair pigeonholing of geeks, many of whom HAVE PERFECTLY GOOD SOCIAL LIVES, ARE ENTERTAINING COMPANY AND HAVE A WIDE RANGE OF INTERESTS THAT LIE FAR OUTSIDE THOSE IMAGINED BY THESE CRUDELY REDUCTIVE STEREOTYPES.

Russia seems to be the source of all the viraliest videos featuring people doing weird things in their office right now, following on from the omnipresence of the'guy going mad in his office' clip As such, we present without comment the following: Russian Office Synchronised Swimming.
